:wink:

My daughter came home from college tonight--just until tomorrow. She's having lunch with me in my classroom before she heads back to school for summer classes. She's only an hour away though. We're all talked out-and she's resting...now sleeping. Her Physics and Genetics finals were today--and she's done for the semester!!
We got some great pics... thought you'd want to see. I made it sooner than next weekend, huh? :lol:

Rachel hadn't met Tucker yet.

Okay--seriously--it'll be Saturday before there's more. :wink:

Great pictures. We love to see your pictures, you don't have to wait until Saturday!!!!!

can i have one? i know you love the little one, so i'll take the big (haha) one.


your daughter looks just like you. not bad at all. LOL!

I love the lap horse!! Great pix Karla.

What great pics ! Do we really have to wait til this weekend for more :?:
Sharon

So precious! And glad you had time with your DD!

Wonderful pictures, Karla, and obviously special mother/daughter time! :lol:

Great pix! I'm glad you and Rachel had a good time.
Lap horse, huh? LOL
I just love that!

Courtney loves the one of Tucker and Rachel. She says it should be in a photography magazine. Great shot! :)

Thanks! :D

Terri--that first one is Rachel and Mazie--is that the one Courtney likes? I know I was confusing when I said Rachel hadn't met Tucker--then didn't put a pic of him first. She's with Tucker in the 2nd and 3rd shots. Mazie will have a flaxen mane and tail, Tucker's will be black. That's a good way to tell them apart.

Yes, the first one is the one she likes, where she's leaning down for a kiss. I told her it was Mazie, but she said...NO MOM, IT'S TUCKER! UGH!
Mazie has that face like Rosie...sort of mischiefy. Is that a word?

Great shots Karla and no...don't wait to post more...I love to look anytime! I thought Rachel looks like you also. And I love your lap babies...you will have the same prob. as DH when he carries the kittens on his head...I keep telling him that they grow up!!

:thumbup: :P :thumbup: 8) :lol: Just love!!!!

Terri--Mazie and Rosie are very similar in personality. I remember Rosie acting so much the same. I feel so lucky to be able to keep both! I bet they will be good buddies.

sandpat--I'm very careful to make the hrorses act as horses--Mazie has only flopped into my lap twice--and I let her stay there for Rachel to get a picture :wink: and because Tucker was coming up behind and she worries when he gets close. :lol: She could see she has nothing to worry about. She was there maybe 1 minute.

Blessing was a real lap baby--I kept telling the kids to not allow it because when she's 200 lbs it won't be pretty. :roll:

I just love ALL the pictures! Just keep them coming!

Awww, Karla, those pictures are just lovely. Thanks for brightening my day with them.

I'm so glad you didn't wait for the weekend to show us more pictures!!

Your daughter is so cute -- she's the spitting image of her mother!!

bb - are you keeping these babies?


sj - bb doesn't spit. do you, bb? LOL!

Beautiful Pictures....Awesome Memories :D :D :D

Love looking at your pictures! Makes me happy everytime! Thank you! :D

I knew you were one smart cookie :lol: ...I bet the kids would only let the big girls/boy do it once :wink: Enjoy them..I always did ours and shame on me because I admit that I did let the babies get away with some things I shouldn't have :roll: They grew up to be well mannered adults though, so it was all ok.

butterflywing--I'm keeping one. :wink:

Love your pictures. I didn't know you had "lap" horses.

i'm so glad. you'll be so happy you did. will you get pregnant again?

Karla,

I am not a jealous or envious person by nature, but when I see the pics of those fur babies I make a (temporary) exception. I wanna be there to give those pets.

OK - over it now - lol. (Don't want to be there for the chores)

Thanks for the pics.

Nope--my stallion is now a gelding (not able to sire foals).

I'm going to focus more on community service with them. Mazie will be taking van drives to Quail Summit--the place that buses residents out to my place to have a "horse show"--she'll be going into the fancy place to bring joy to residents. :D The residents will be coming here in July again--there are photos from their first two visits on my website.

I'll be investigating other places to use Mazie as a therapy horse.
Plus, I want to ground drive Jazz and others--Gypsy will be my running buddy, and Rosie my clicker training buddy. Chloe is going to be a pasture ornament and be buddies with everyone. She's good at that. :D

I have 7 horses now, I'd like that to be 4 or 5 by fall.

No more foals--way too stressful in so many ways. I have no regrets.

They are just toooooooooooo sweet!! Now I want one.......or two!! :lol:

Karla pregnant again? Hmm...I'm thinking that might be a surprise to Mark. lol What would the kids say? ;)

I got a giggle there too Terri...I bet Karla is REALLY surprized!!

I'm thinking BOTH of them would be surprised! lol
